Common Causes of Foundation Cracks
Common Causes of Foundation Cracks
Curing Concrete
As concrete cures, small “hairline” cracks, known as shrinkage cracks, are common. These cracks are usually less than 1/16″ wide and occur near the center of a span. While they are typically not a sign of major issues, it’s essential to monitor them. If cracks widen beyond a dime’s width or become uneven, contact us for a consultation. The Concrete Network provides more details on curing and shrinkage cracks.
Foundation Settlement
Foundation settlement occurs when the soil beneath your home can’t support its weight, causing uneven settling and cracks. These cracks often appear wider at the top or bottom and indicate serious issues. Settlement cracks worsen over time and require prompt professional attention.
Expansive Soils
Even minor cracks in foundation walls can become problematic if they allow water to enter your basement or crawl space. Water intrusion through cracks can lead to significant structural and health issues. Our team specializes in repairing these leaks to ensure your foundation remains dry and safe.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About Foundation Crack Repair
What causes foundation cracks?
Foundation cracks can be caused by several factors, including curing concrete, foundation settlement, expansive soils, and water intrusion. Shrinkage cracks are common as concrete cures, while settlement cracks result from soil issues. Expansive soils apply pressure to walls, and water intrusion can exacerbate existing cracks.
ow can I tell if a foundation crack is serious?
Cracks that are wider than 1/16 inch, uneven in width, or growing over time may indicate serious issues. Vertical cracks are often less concerning than horizontal or diagonal cracks. If you notice cracks that allow water to seep through or if your foundation shows signs of settling, it’s important to seek professional advice.
Can small cracks in my foundation cause major problems?
While small cracks are often cosmetic, they can lead to significant issues if they allow water to enter your home or if they are signs of underlying structural problems. It’s essential to monitor these cracks and consult a professional if you notice any changes or water intrusion.
Do I need a professional to repair foundation cracks?
Yes, it is advisable to hire a professional for foundation crack repairs. An experienced contractor can accurately diagnose the cause of the cracks and apply the appropriate repair methods to ensure the stability and safety of your foundation.
